For one, i dont think he is the best on the board. Secondly, he doesnt fit our scheme what so ever. He is best in zone coverage and we have been running more of a man to man scheme. I like Xavier Rhodes there much more.

In the second i love Okafor and his value, but the way things play out... we could land Kenny Vaccaro there and then in round three pick up Jackson Jeffcoat. That would work out much better. I think Vaccaro is head and shoulders above Prentiss Wagner.

The rest of the draft looks good though. I would like to see TE addressed a little earlier, possibly where Devante Holloman is.

Not a bad Steelers draft. If the Steelers bail on Ta'amu then a NT is needed desperately and Jenkins certainly fits the bill. Getting his teammate Williams isn't bad, maybe a little high, but they do need youth at that position. I might go with fellow teammate and ballhawk Rambo but he has character concerns that worry me a little. I really like Johnson in the third. Robinson in the fourth is interesting but if the Steelers go WR I rather have them get a big one instead. Robinson is in the same physical mold of Brown and Sanders.

Mingo is a Junior and has not had the season many had predicted. He would be best served to stay in school.

The Steelers did bail on Ta'amu. They released him Nov. 12.

They resigned him to their practice squad. They haven't given up on him just yet but he is treading on thin ice. Still Jenkins is a solid pick there._________________

I didn't realize they re-signed him to the practice squad. Thanks for the update. _________________"People say you should always do the right thing, but sometimes there is no right thing. And then, you just have to pick the sin you can live with." -Ig Perrish

I don't like Tyler Wilson in the first at allllllll.

There's not a lot of options out there with the top 2 QB's off the board. Personally, I can see the Jets trading a 2nd or 3rd round pick to the Seahawks for Matt Flynn, but we'll have to wait and see. I think Flynn would be a better option than the QB's in this draft and a massive upgrade over Sanchez and Tebow._________________"People say you should always do the right thing, but sometimes there is no right thing.

So I would imagine that Jarvis Jones would play a Von Miller type role for the Eagles in the 43?

I don't want him anyway, that back condition of his worries me too much to take that early. Maybe if he's there in the second but no thanks to him at 6 with those medical concerns. Go Joeckel instead then some sort of safety in the second round.

Nice work on doing a 7 rounder man that's beastly._________________Kiltman on the sig

Give the Jets Chance Warmack in the 1st. Dion Jordan in the 2nd. Andre Ellington in the 3rd. Michael Buchanon in the 4th. John Boyett in the 5th. Josh Jenkins in the 6th. Ryan Nassib in the 7th._________________Jamison.'s Gallery
